SUMMARY

Rather than seeing all records that match a query, you may want to see all records that don’t match a query. If a criterion is complex, it can be reversed by putting a NOT operator in front of the entire formula.

For example, the following query

=Units*Price>=1000&Date>‘5/15/88’

is the opposite of this query:

=~(Units*Price>=1000&Date>‘5/15/88’)
